Hey, I'd almost forgotten about this thread!

OK, a five-minute no topics off limits conversation with God, or win the current Mega-Millions jackpot?

Interesting. My first thought is, jackpot is a sure thing, conversation is only worthwhile if God actually exists. Thinking further, convo with God is more valuable if it's somehow possible to guarantee a conversation happens if he exists. Then you would have certainty as to God's existence or non-existence, and if he exists, you can ask for the winning jackpot numbers.

Good move there Rev. 

I'll take the jackpot as I wouldn't trust God to answer honestly if he does exist.

Jackpot please!  I'll have plenty of time to converse with God. The megamillions will give me more time and opportunity to converse with everyone else.

I'd take five minutes with God because I could find out anything I ever wanted to know, like what happened to Ambrose Bierce, is the moon hollow, what are the next Mega Millions numbers. You guys are cynical, sheesh, like God would lie. Drown everyone in a global flood, sure, but not lie.

He really doesn't seem to have been all that great at following his rules that he expects us to follow. I don't trust anyone who lives by do as I say, not as I do. He breaks a few of them in the bible which makes me think there is a good chance he breaks the others too.

I hear you, and I've had MANY hours of hashing over those very topics to the point it's like a theme to my philosophical life where God is concerned. Does might entitle one, or should right bind even the all-powerful?

It was also the autocorrect, my old enemy, which typed "Pierce" by the way. Grr.

Would you say you have good reading comprehension?

I've noticed it's less common than some people seem to think.

GUESS to whom:  

I thought you were leaving in the new year?  

[ER]

^ I guess someone had better acknowledge AHD is back among us before he implodes or something. Seems like he reallllly wants us to notice his return. Uh, welcome back to the message board after apparently saying you were leaving at new year's or something, I gather, John?  I "guess" that's what he's saying?

As you well know, I NEVER said I was leaving. YOU said you were.  So?

Can you show me where I said that?

Maybe he should answer my reading comprehension question up there.

Jeesh, trouble-maker much, AHD?

[Rev. Powell]

Yeah, when people carry on private feuds in a public forum...

You have to choose between cakes or pies, which one are you taking?
Both for me I would have to give it to cakes, but not by much.
